Many Banbury Lib Dems spent a lot of time and money to help get our former colleague (boundary changes) and friend Calum elected - proving to be good use of both.

This is perfect BS. There is no option they must (and have to) refuse an illegal order. There is no option. This is what the US military is taught (or was), and it is Law (the ochre baboon will go) - but law will (may) stay. Others may find this true ...

This is, of course, the correct response. Everyone in Labour, in this case, the Lib Dems (Green, PC, MK, SNP etc) and I hope all of Nus Ghani's party stand firm against this bigotry- maybe leave GBNews to the Gobshite racists and Tommy Robinson fangirls. OFFCOM your part of ship. Do something 🤔?

Oh great yet another bottom feeder wants me dead (actually he would be so confused with my colour and features that his inbred idiocy would blow the tiny mind). But hey Reform why is he even in your non-fascist party? www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

We have to start to wonder why every Labour Government ends in this fu**ing place. There is something that is ingrained and capricious about the depths of their cynicism and degeneracy.

Labour, in the end, are never Liberal or Progressive (Occasionally make the right sounds and some members even are, but...) immigration, id cards, this, etc. For Liberalism you have to support/ join/ vote for the real thing. As every Labour Government has proved. With Roy Jenkins as an exception

Now this is a result I wasn't expecting to see. Clearly either the good folk of Hale have a beef against Zack (and he's from these parts - well greater Manchester), the candidate or something else...

I thought this was going to turn into a story needing its own True Crime Netflix series, but no. This is quite something. metro.co.uk/2025/11/18/w...

Due to woke, the role of Jim Callaghan has now gone to an Asian woman.

Can't disagree with Stew's point.

Calum Miller, MP for Bicester and Woodstock and Lib Dem Foreign Affairs Spokesperson, has presented a Bill to Parliament to enable the seizure of frozen Russian assets and direct the proceeds to Ukraine’s defence, reconstruction and humanitarian relief. whatson.parliament.uk/event/cal532...

Well said Rob 👏

This is surely true, sad that it even needs saying...

Banbury Lib Dems is currently (re) reading 'The strange Death of ...' (as well as pictured. Should I start sharpening my pen to write 'The non-very Strange Death of Labour England'? Chapt 1, Brown's Inheritance ... , Chapt 9 taking the piss the Corbyn years, Chapt 12 Starmer - things fall apart...

AGM done. Thanks to all. Lots of opportunities for the party going into the next few election cycles. Thanks in particular to @ollyglover.bsky.social for overcoming Cross Country rail to come and speak & discuss with us local national and international issues; wide-ranging probably just covers it.

This sounds like excellent news. Curlew numbers are in free fall, iconic bird

Cat. Dog. Mouse. Dunno.

I’m a 3rd child. My father left when I was 3. Overnight we fell from middle class to poverty. My mother already struggled financially but without child benefit, homelessness and hunger would’ve been inevitable. If you support this policy, you think I should be dead, and I will take that personally.

Interesting evening on the 'cultural appropation' front in kitchen. Given full eyes role, sigh 'leave it to me' for using the wrong rose petals (needed the purple not yellow) in Rose Harissa - who knew - ' I'll do it...' etc But put monkfish on a pizza and you are a hero and should enter Masterchef

Execs tonight last before AGM. Major takeaway; never, never NEVER forget to put salt in the pizza dough you intend to bake and eat afterwards. Adding a few more salted capers managed to make it largely delicious

The neighbours are certainly getting busy. Hope they don't forget about us ... 😢

I’m absolutely delighted to have been offered the role of Shadow Chief Secretary to the Treasury by @eddavey.libdems.org.uk. I’m looking forward to supporting @libdemdaisy.bsky.social and the rest of the team, as we continue to build on the LibDem record of responsible, ambitious economic policy.

Now this is what we like. Well done everyone 👏

This may be simplistic, but ... well, more than sophisticated than Uncle Nigel and the bigots accepting and praising Putin, and those against people of colour in UK advertisements

Knew they were a dodgy lot (both the last Government and the owners of Puy du Foy) Not convinced a Putin lover is an ideal neighbour

We know which side we are on. Thanks to all the anti-bigots in Oxford today. And anti-bigots everywhere everyday. ❤️

Well quite. Some media find Reform incredibly interesting to write about, that doesn't necessarily translate into votes. Congrats to the Lib Dems for holding them off in various by-elections this week.

All pubs are good let's bring this one back to life.

As a northerner just helps that my park and ride is free...

I made an infographic map. Oxford's Congestion Charge scheme (from 29th Oct) is not like most congestion charge schemes, because you can get to most streets in the city without being charged. My impression is a lot of people haven't realised this.

My mother once worked in a biospy lab with a working class lady who saved up with her, equally working class, husband to visit the ROH once a year for their annual holiday. They loved it and sacrificed for their art. It actually made me think Opera and classical could also be for me...

This is good. Can't help think this is Tim in his element. Get a lot of Duke of Edinburgh youngsters around here, great to see them having such an experience, especially those who don't normally have the opportunity to enjoy the countryside ... whatever the weather.

This is really mad - let the ochre orangutan (apologies to the fine animal - alliteration) play with knives obviously not historically important ones - but how would 'he' known ... well anything..

When it’s one of their own a man wrapped in religion ..silence becomes holy. They howl about “protecting children” until the predator wears a MAGA hat. Then it’s forgiveness, not fury. Their outrage was never about justice only control, fear, and keeping people angry at the wrong enemy.

If someone tells you what they would do ... believe them. Don't play silly games. Don't appease them; don't praise them because you hate one of their enemies - they still hate you. Unite against bigotry, ignorance, racism (all forms) & intolerance. Do not pander to fascism. ADL it's not hard

To be clear @peterwalker99.bsky.social no one cheers an awful policy announcement that makes anyone in our community feel less welcome or at risk of deportation. What is true is that the Tory party is dead and that the Lib Dems will always stand up for our incredible immigrant communities.

Fans of currently Tory MP-free-Oxfordshire thank you for your continuing service, Kemi!

Just fuck off & carry on fucking off until... well carry on fucking off & then again carry on fucking off & then fuck off. What is the matter with these people. Just fuck off. We are now at a point where this 'Government' is significantly to the right of Margaret Thatcher or Enoch Powell Fuck off

Abingdon does this; anarchy, just anarchy, thought the Golden Retrevers were plotting a coup... Poor Hedrig kept having his toy stolen by Labradors and spaniels ...

Obviously, Jonn is right, not the main issue, but the constant whinying, whingeing and tantrum throwing of the far right is a weakness to be exploited. They are weak and brittle.

The people’s flag now has been banned For delegates from ‘cross the land No flags shall fly within the hall Lest the wrong people heed their call

Because at the end, the basics are as my dad said to my sister never let your passport run out...ever. They don't care. Never trust them

Well obviously Reeves is right here But why are people scared of Kristin? ...I don't understand, I have no fear of her ... obviously not going to pay Murdoch on those chance the article answer's the question.

Saturday's TIMES: EU deals can reduce need for tax rises hints Reeves #TomorrowsPapersToday

To be fair to Zack he is being very understated... when I hear Starmers BS I think the C*** wants my spouse dead, or would with present rules, so fuck him and all that sailing in him...

www.linkedin.com/posts/rt-hon... Well, it seems one Tory has a Scooby...bit pissing in the wind, though.

www.linkedin.com/posts/rt-hon... This has just come up in LinkedIn feed. As the great Windsor Davies said 'Oh dear how sad, never mind'

Just rename yourselves: GriftUK? CorruptionUK? Or even 'Trump's little poodlesUK' (although unfair on Poodles, who are fine and honourable creatures very unlike Farage).
